let me ask you about tax reform. you told politico last week that a, quote, a balanced approach to replacing the sequester with spending cuts and revenue should accelerate tax reform, and i believe it's fully possible this year if we work on a bipartisan basis, unquote. how does that square, sir, with the people who say that tax reform is going to lose out because of scheduling, the need to deal with the debt ceiling, the need to deal with the looming she quester and the house republicans' concern that if they do anything on tax reform, that they may leave themselves up to the senate not to take action, and, therefore, they've taken an unpopular vote for no reason. why are you optimistic on tax reform? >> first of all, we have to resolve this debt can crisis in terms of -- this debt crisis in terms of sequestration and in terms of the full faith and credit of the u.s. in the next six weeks. we aren't going to accomplish tax reform in the next six weeks. so we have a deadline that i think cannot basically be moved for
